The 10 ohm and 33 ohm 1/2 watt resistors I have been waiting for finally came in. The 200 ohm 3 watt I ordered came in earlier. Today I wired them all to a 4 lug terminal strip, and replaced the bias resistor, and finished the wiring and parts replacement in that corner.

Next I have to replace one last electrolytic on that side of the chassis, the last of the three. I mentioned earlier that I was thinking of replacing the tone control switch / on - off switch with a proper tone control and switch earlier; well, it seems someone beat me to it many years ago.

That will be what I look at tomorrow, to make sure it is connected safely and properly so it will work well, and make sure the pot is working well. After that I will rebuild that last electrolytic, and then move on to the long terminal strip on the other side of the chassis, desoldering wires and parts, replacing the parts, and putting it all back. Stay tuned for the continuing adventure...
